From what could be seen, it was a huge mountain five kilometers in diameter and 3,000 meters in altitude. It didn’t have a cone-like appearance similar to those of normal active volcanos. It has a dome-like, flat top made of lava, and it would be more appropriate to call it a gigantic hill than a mountain. However, the altitude and scale were just abnormal.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» was commonly known as one of the Seven Great Dungeons. However, unlike «Orcus Great Dungeon», it wasn’t much visited by adventurers. It was because of the danger inside and how troublesome it was. In addition, unlike the «Orcus Great Dungeon», demonic beasts from whom the magic stones were gathered from were scarce… those were the basic reasons, but the foremost was actually because only few people were capable of reaching the entrance.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The reason was,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“… It looks just like Laputa.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“… Laputa?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hajime unconsciously muttered while recalling the scene of that masterpiece anime, which made Yue and the other girls look at him with questioning glances. Hajime only shrugged his shoulders and watched the gigantic swirling sandstorm from inside the four-wheeler.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">That’s right, just like how the floating castle was wrapped by a cumulonimbus cloud, the «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» was wrapped by a gigantic, swirling sandstorm. The storm’s scale was so huge that it completely hid the «Guryuu-en Great Volcano», and the tornados of the sandstorm were just like a flowing wall.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Moreover, a large amount of demonic beasts such as Sandworms were lurking inside the sandstorm, and they would mercilessly make surprise attacks within the place that had limited range of view. Thus, Hajime could only nod at the tale where people with average ability wouldn’t be able to pass through the sandstorm, and into «Guryuu-en Great Volcano».<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“I am glad we aren’t walking here.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Indeed, even I doth not wanteth to enter it with mine own body.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Looking at the giant sandstorm from the window just like Hajime, Shia and Tio were grateful to the four-wheeler. Smiling wryly, Hajime said, “Then, let’s go.” and the four-wheeler dashed out. For this case, they didn’t come to conquer it leisurely. There wasn’t that much Serene Stone on the surface, so it was necessary to go into the untouched depth of the dungeon to obtain the amount needed. And if they go into the deepest part, there should be a shortcut similar to what they have experienced until now. As such, they would be able to immediately return to Ancadi.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hajime, himself, wasn’t interested in the safety of Ancadi’s people, but he didn’t mind helping them. By doing so, he would at least not to feel guilty towards his companion, Kaori, nor would he let Myuu see a spectacle that would bring great shock to her.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">While thinking this, Hajime regained his spirit and charged into the gigantic sandstorm.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Inside the sandstorm was a world painted in brown. Just like in the fog of«Halteena Sea of Trees», it was hard to see ahead. It was also capable of influencing one’s physical condition, so it might be more troublesome than that fog. Thus, even using magic, breaking through this place filled with hidden demonic beasts was indeed virtually impossible.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Light coming from the headlight made out of Green Light stone cut through the dim place where the sunlight could not reach. Their speed was 30 kmph. If the information they got before was accurate, they would break through the sandstorm within five minutes.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">And at that time, Shia’s rabbit ears stood straight and Hajime also reacted, one beat after her. “Brace yourself!,” Hajime raised his voice, and grandly turned the steering wheel.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Three sandworms with their big mouths opened and jumped out from below. Evading the ambush, the four-wheeler created S-letters on the ground, and Hajime kept running away without a care. With the four-wheeler’s speed, it would be better to quickly get out of the sandstorm than fighting each time something appeared.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Two more sandworms came to attack from both sides of the four-wheeler while it was dashing out and ignored the previous three sandworms. Their timing was so good that the four-wheeler’s body would receive body blows. However, it would hit without damaging the four-wheeler at all, and the four-wheeler would only be turned sideways. That’s why, once Hajime grasped the surprise attacks using “Sign Perception,” he immediately tried to drift to evade. However, Yue and Tio stopped him.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“…Nn, leave it to me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">” Just leaveth it to this one, Master.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hearing the two, Hajime unhesitatingly kept the steering wheel straight as it was. Then, the gigantic worms dashed out of the brown colored world.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">However, the attacks coming from the sandworms from the left and right side couldn’t even touch the four-wheeler.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“””Wind Blade.”””<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Seeing the sandworm on the left, Yue muttered and a blade of wind was instantly produced outside the four-wheeler and fired, drawing a trajectory using the sand on the air. Thus the sandworm that jumped out before them was horizontally slashed, and blood scattered from the divided sandworm.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">That spectacle was similar to what happened on the right side, which Tio had taken care of.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Hmm, as expected of thee, thee fired a good wind.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“… There’s no way I won’t use the wind from the sandstorm. Tio, too, as expected of you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Similarly, they instantly chose to use wind element magic, “Wind Blade,” and though it was a beginner-ranked magic, the “Wind Blades” previously fired were as strong as mid-ranked magic. The reason was because they used the raging wind outside. Simply, the strength of magic wasn’t only affected by magic power, thus the best magic used was selected according to the condition and environment of the location. However, even though saying it was simple, it was difficult to actually do it. For Yue and Tio to be capable of doing it, it was indeed as expected of their competency.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Behind them, the three sandworms from before were still following. They had considerable speed as they advanced under the ground. Irritated by them, Hajime activated four-wheeler’s gimmick.&nbsp;<i>Briiing!</i>Such a sound came from the back part of the four-wheeler and one of its rear part opened. Several black, round objects rolled down from there.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The moment some met up with the sandworms pursuing the four-wheeler, they created huge explosions. The impact blew away the ground, and the sandworms advancing underground came out of the ground while scattering flesh and blood. Towards the sandworms, more black object, grenades, rolled and caused more explosions that blew away half of each of the sandworms. Their upper-bodies were blown off, fluttered mid-air, and disappeared inside the sandstorm.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Uhya~, amazing. Hajime-san, just how many functions are installed in this four-wheeler?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Shia asked Hajime while looking at the sandworms that were flashily blown away from the back window. Hajime was wearing a mischievous smile.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“It is capable of transforming into a human-shaped weapon, a gigantic golem.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“””…”””<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Although they wanted to say it was impossible, they knew Hajime could do it, thus not only Shia, but Tio and Yue also began to silently look around inside the vehicle. Smiling wryly, Hajime said, “It was a joke. As expected, I can’t make such a function… I want to though.” However, Yue and the girls were convinced that Hajime would someday be capable of creating that.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Afterwards, the composed Hajime’s party were also attacked by brown-colored, gigantic spider, and ant-like demonic beasts. However, all of them were crushed by the four-wheeler’s armament and the magic from Yue and Tio without accomplishing anything, not even halting the party’s advance.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ignoring Shia who said, “I am useless here,” from the back seat, Hajime’s party easily broke through the gigantic sandstorm that had obstructed a lot of adventurers.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Buuahh!</span></i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">&nbsp;Hajime’s party came out of the sandstorm and arrived at a rocky mountain several times bigger than Ayers Rock. It was a silent place surrounded by the wall-like sandstorm where the blue sky could be seen up above — the eye of the storm.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The entrance into «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» was at the top, so they continued to travel up on the slope using the four-wheeler. The exposed rocky surface was reddish red in color, and steams gushed from here and there. Though it was an active volcano, the point where it never erupted was a Great Dungeon-like wonder.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Before long, the angle became more difficult for the four-wheeler to advance, so Hajime’s party got out of the four wheeler and went towards the top of the mountain on foot.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Uwau… i-it’s hot.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Nn~…”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Indeed. … the heat is in a different scale compared to the heat of the desert’s dry weather… Even without the time limit, it would be better to quickly conquer the dungeon, huh.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Hmm, though this one feels comfortable here… this one can’t wait… to feel so hot that this body would writhes in agony.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“… I will drop you into the magma later.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Attacked by the heat as soon as they got out of the four-wheeler, other than Tio, all of them made dissatisfied expressions. Due to them being in an air-conditioned place before, they felt even hotter. As adventurers in another world and travelers, for them to have withdrawal symptom similar to shut-ins was… just reaping what they sowed.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">They didn’t have much time, so while complaining about the heat, they quickly went towards the mountain top, climbed the rocky place quickly as if they didn’t feel any weight. As a result, Hajime’s party reached the top of the mountain in less than one hour.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">They arrived at the top, a complex place buried by rocks of various sizes. There were rocks with pointed surface and also those with slippery, smooth surface. It was just like an exhibition of strange objects. Also, they could feel the top of the sandstorm nearby.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">There was an exceptionally huge rock, and a group of strange-shaped rocks. It was an arch-shaped rock with the length of ten meters.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hajime’s party went there and found a huge staircase that continued on into «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» under the arch-shaped rock. Hajime stood before the staircase and looked over his shoulder towards Yue, Shia, and Tio’s faces in order. With a confident expression, he said a word to challenge the Great Dungeon.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Let’s do it!”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Nn!”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Yes!”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Umh!”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">* * *<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The inside of «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» was even more unexpected than «Orcus Great Dungeon» and «Raisen Great Dungeon».<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Rather than the difficulty, it was the interior’s structure that was unexpected.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">First, magma was flowing mid-air. Not flowing like the waterway in the demi-human country, Faea Belgaen, but the magma was in the mid-air and flowing like rivers. The streaming, scorching red magma in mid-air was just like huge, jumping dragons.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Thus, the magma flowing around the passage and broad space made not only the dungeon challenger be cautious about the magma on the ground, but also above them.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Moreover,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Ukya!”</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br />“Woops, are you okay?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Ha~, Hajime-san, thank you.

It was really abrupt that it was difficult to perceive any prior sign of it. It was similar to that of a booby trap. Fortunately, Hajime has “Heat Perception.” Without it, their conquering speed would’ve fallen due to the need to be cautious.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Following that, the thing that made it truly difficult was the boiling heat — extreme heat. It was naturally hot due to magma streaming all around the passage and broad space which made the party feel like being inside a sauna, or to be more accurate, above a heated frying pan. The heat was the most troublesome thing about «Guryuu-en Great Volcano».<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">While sweating, Hajime’s party continued to advance while evading the drops of &nbsp;the spouting magma. And in a certain broad space, they found that it has artificial cuts all over the place. The place was worn down by cuts that seemed to come from something like a pickaxe, but there was a small, faint pink-colored crystal peeping from one part of the wall.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Oh?

Though those could be taken out and carried, but the size was indeed too small. As expected, it was too inefficient to gather the ones on the surface, so it was necessary for them to go into the depth to be able to obtain a lot of it in a dash.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">For now, Hajime used “Mineral Enquiry” to search around for Serene Stone.

It was the highest floor recorded to be reached by the adventurers. None of those who moved farther than this had come back alive. So, bracing themselves, Hajime’s party descended into the eighth floor.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">At that moment,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">GRuuOoOOOO!!!</span></i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">When they felt fanned by a strong hot wind, a huge blazing flame came to attack Hajime’s party from right ahead of them.

The black, swirling sphere, the gravity magic called “Absolute Calamity,” was generating its own gravity, pulled those coming near it, and swallowed them into the inside of it, like a black hole.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">When all of the blazing flame was swallowed by Yue’s swirling supergravity, the party could see the identity of their attacker.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">It was a bull. It stood in the middle of the magna, and its whole body was also cladded in magma. It had two sharp curved horns on its head, and flame was coming out of its mouth from time to time. The heat-proofness of this demonic beast made Hajime instinctively wanted to retort on it.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Maybe because the Magma Bull was angry that its peculiar magic, the blazing flame attack, was easily nullified, sounds of&nbsp;<i>thud!

Her aiming wasn’t off, the Doryukken swung down directly hitting the Magma Bull’s head. At that moment, ripples of faint blue-colored magic power spread around the center of the place where it struck, followed by tremendous impact.

The demonic beasts not only would try to inflict fatal wound by using body blow, a lot of them were also using the surrounding magma to attack; a situation where they have infinite weapon.

Moreover, even if the demonic beasts could be defeated, the size and quality of the magic stones were the same as the demonic beasts in the fortieth floors of «Orcus Great Dungeon» and the existence of Serene Stone, a valuable mineral, didn’t affect the income much.

His gaze turned towards the clothes of Yue and Shia sticky from all the sweat. Noticing the disappearance and appearance of their bare skin, his gaze was pulled towards Yue.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Probably because she was wiping her sweat, a large amount of her skin was peeping from her pure-white dress. Her skin had a tinge of red due to the heat. Her bare skin glossy from the sweat and her rougher-than-normal breathing was truly erotic.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Unconsciously, Hajime even forgot to look away and continued watching her, but his gaze suddenly met Yue’s raised gaze. Having forgotten the situation due to being charmed… and getting somewhat aroused, Hajime tried to look away in guilt.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">However, just before he looked away, Yue who caught Hajime’s gaze revealed a bewitching smile. With the still disarrayed clothes, arching her back like a cat, she slowly got down to all fours and approached Hajime. Her hazy eyes that wouldn’t let Hajime’s gaze escape, flushing cheeks because of the heat, and showing a tint of breasts every time she moved…<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Yue, who immediately approached Hajime in all fours, sat on Hajime’s cross-legged legs, sending him an upward gaze, and with a spoiled, sweet tone…<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“… Hajime, wipe me?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hajime unconsciously receiv</span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">ed the towel from her, and his gaze remained fixed on Yue’s eyes. In his mind, “Ah, crap. I can’t win against Yue in this situation,” he thought with a wry smile.

However, Hajime was found out that he felt the sweat that flowed into Tio’s breasts made her looked sexy. Hearing that, “I am not even looked at!,” Shia was angry. Shia forgot about the TPO (time, place, and occasion) she said a little while ago and began to strip before Hajime.&nbsp;<i>Then, this one will strip too</i>, but Hajime fired rubber bullets to silence them because it would turn bothersome otherwise.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Hajime continued to wipe off Yue’s sweat before the writhing Shia whose breasts were completely bare and the writhing Tio with her disgusting smile.

A slime… it was the most suitable word to describe it.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">However, its size was abnormal. Slime-type demonic beasts were normally one meter in length, at best. Moreover, there should be none with power to manipulate the surrounding water. It should only be capable of manipulating the tentacles that were part of its own body.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“What the… what’s with that demonic beast?

Vachram itself was a slime-type demonic beast of this world.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Well, I don’t care whatever it is. In the end, isn’t this the thing polluting the oasis? So, it is most likely to have a peculiar magic that excreted the poison.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… What you’re thinking should be right.

Yue and Tio were dealing with those tentacles with ice magic and fire magic respectively. Hajime was also intercepting while talking using Donner-Schlag, and though he aimed at the core-like red magic stone, he could not easily hit it since the magic stone moved around the body, as if it had its own will.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Seeing Hajime’s artifacts and the magic from Yue and Tio, Randzi had given up being surprised and decided to just ignore them which resulted in him being capable of calmly asking Hajime that question.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Nn~… yeah, there’s no need to worry. I’ve caught it now.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Replying casually to Randzi’s question, Hajime quietly put Schlag back into its holster and used both hands to ready Donner while narrowing his eyes, following the track of the moving magic stone. His right arm thrusted straight forward and left arm’s elbow slightly bent. His feet, one positioned forward and one backward. It was the shooting posture called Weaver Stance, the pose to accurately fire Donner.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime’s eyes sharply narrowed just like those of a hawk’s, completely capturing the movement of that magic stone. Then…<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">KABOOM!!</span></i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">With a dry explosive sound, a line of flash cut through the air as though they were pulled by a magnetic force. The moving magic stone, while ignoring the law of inertia, was shot through by the flash, and it could be said that the magic stone was being voluntarily hit.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">The impact and heat from the railgun instantly annihilated the magic stone, and at the same time, the Oasis-Vachram lost its power and the water it manipulated returned into normal water.<i>WoOoOoOSH~!</i>&nbsp;A large amount of water poured down. Randzi and his subordinates were watching the generated rough waves.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… Is it over?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ah, there’s no more magic power reaction from the oasis now. I don’t know whether annihilating the cause is equal to purifying it though.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">With Hajime’s words indicating that he easily repulsed the cause of Ancadi’s desperate situation only made Randzi and his subordinates puzzled. Even so, because the cause was certainly annihilated before their own eyes, one of Randzi’s subordinate came to examine the water’s substance in a panic.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… How is it?”</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br />“… No, it is still polluted.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Randzi asked with an expectant tone, but his subordinate was shaking his head in disappointment. They knew the people were infected by the water drawn from the oasis, but they could not conceal their disappointment after finding out that it was still polluted even though the Oasis-Vachram was no longer there.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Well, there’s no need for thee to be disappointed. With the cause gone, the pollution won’t advance. And the water from the oasis comes from the fresh water in the underground water pulse, so the oasis will be able to return to its normal state if the polluted water is exhausted.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Tio told Randzi and his subordinates to comfort them, thus Randzi and his subordinates began to pull themselves together, displaying their wills. Their appearances, with Randzi, ruler of Ancadi, in the center showed how much they loved this country. It was a country that existed in a severe environment, so the patriotism was high.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… But, I wonder just why that Vachram-like demonic beast is doing in the desert… Was it a new kind of demonic beast that came from the underground water pulse?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Having pulled himself together, Randzi tilted his head while looking at the oasis. And Hajime was the one who answered him.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“It is just my guess, but… it was probably the work of the Demon race, right?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“!? Demon race? Hajime-dono, you must know something to be able to say that, right?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Randzi was surprised by Hajime’s words, but he instantly regained his composure and urged Hajime to explain. Randzi was looking at Hajime, the one who secured the water and annihilated the cause of pollution, with respect and trust. There’s no more trace of the suspicion that he had in the beginning.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime guessed the Oasis-Vachram was a new demon</span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">ic beast created by Age of Gods magic that the Demon race had. There’s the peculiarity of Oasis-Vachram, coupled with the fact that the Demon race was also aiming at Aiko in Ul and the Heroes in Orcus.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">It was probably one of the Demon race’s scheme, using demonic beast. The Demon race was investigating and erasing dangerous, unknown elements and key points in the northern region of the continent before the war. The proofs were how they aimed at Aiko, an existence that could affect food supply, and the Heroes from another world that the Church of the Saints summoned to fight against the Demon race.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">As for Ancadi, it was the key point of food supply since it was the relay point of marine products from Elisen and it also produced large amounts of fruits and other food ingredients. Moreover, if Ancadi was attacked, it was hard to call for help because it is located in the middle of the Great Desert. So, it wouldn’t be odd for the Demon race to aim for Ancadi.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Being told so, Randzi raised a low groan with a bitter expression.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“I’ve heard about the demonic beast. We also did our own investigation about it but… I’ve never expected they could create such a thing… how naive of me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Well, it isn’t something you can help, right? After all, even the Imperial Capital didn’t get information about new kinds of demonic beasts. Furthermore, the case where the Hero’s party was attacked was only recently. And that must have created commotions everywhere right now.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Maybe it is about time for them to make a move, huh… Hajime-dono… although you introduced yourself as an adventurer… those artifacts and power, as expected, you are the same as Kaori-dono…”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Without saying anything, Hajime shrugged his shoulders, thus Randzi stopped asking, thinking Hajime must have his own circumstance. No matter what the circumstance was, it didn’t change the fact that Hajime’s party saved Ancadi. There’s no need to make any useless inquiry to their benefactors.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… Hajime-dono, Yue-dono, Tio-dono. Let this Lord of Ancadi, Randzi Fuad Zengain, show his gratitude on behalf of this country. You have saved this country.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Saying so, Randzi and his subordinates bowed their heads. It wasn’t an easy thing for the Lord himself to bow his head, but regardless whether Hajime is one of the “God’s Apostles,” Randzi would still bow his head. And although only a short time had passed, Hajime understood Randzi held an extraordinary patriotism. This was also the reason why his subordinates didn’t stop Randzi from bowing his head to someone who introduced himself as a mere adventurer, and they also bowed their heads. Such personality was also passed onto his son, Viz. Their gesture, speech, and behavior were alike.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Towards them, Hajime was smiling broadly while saying,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ah, you have expressed your gratitudes. Also, please don’t forget about this huge favor.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">He expected them to return this favor. Well, it was not something new. Hajime said, “No, please don’t worry about that. This is something natural to do as a person,” clearly and humbly, thus Randzi was inadvertently dumbfounded thinking Hajime had casually said he wanted something. Randzi himself actually didn’t mind giving him anything as his thanks towards the country’s saviors, but he didn’t expect it to be said straight to his face.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime had thought there’s no need for gratitude since it was necessary for him to make Ancadi secure because he needed to entrust them with Myuu, and there’s Kaori’s request, too.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">However, because they made their way to express their gratitude, it wouldn’t be bad to have more people as allies in a time of emergency, so he clearly told them it was a favor. Hajime thought Randzi would sincerely correspond to it, but he was also a politician, so Hajime needed to make sure of it.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ah, ahh. Of course. It will be remembered forever… But, there are still many people suffering in Ancadi, can I ask your help in their behalf?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">It was something Randzi was used to, as a politician and as a noble, but Randzi was a little perplexed due to the too straight forward words said by Hajime. Before long, as if he had come to an agreement, Randzi nodded with a wry smile. Afterwards, he requested Hajime to procure “Serene Stone” for the sake of saving those infected.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“My original objective was «Guryuu-en Great Volcano». Thus, there’s no problem in getting it at all. However, just how much should I gather?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">With Hajime easily accepting his request, Randzi patted his chest in relief, next he told Hajime the current number of patients and the amount needed to be gathered. Although it was a considerable amount, it was not a problem because Hajime possessed “Treasure Box.” Normal adventurers might not be able to save all of the infected, so Randzi was thanking God to have met Hajime’s party.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">* * *<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Accompanied by Shia inside the medical center, Kaori displayed storm-like activities. She simultaneously extracted magic power from the more urgent patients and filled the Magic-crystallization stones. She also delayed the progress of disease for the patients gathered within radius of ten meters from her and used healing magic at the same time to recover the patients from their weakened state.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Shia was using her herculean strength to move the immobilized patients at once. She wasn’t moving using the wagon, but she lifted the wagon filled with the patients and jumped above the buildings, going back and forth the medical facilities. It was because it was more efficient to gather the more urgent patients around Kaori than her going around each of the facilities.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">This method created an unbelievable spectacle starring the should be incompetent rabbit-eared girl, made a lot of patients begin to think their disease had gotten worsen, and thus created such illusion. Despair poured into the medical facilities, creating unnecessary chaos.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">The medical staff themselves had used high-ranked magic in succession, and they became astonished when they saw Kaori using several healing magic simultaneously as if it was a natural thing. Once their astonishment passed, they now held deep respect towards Kaori, and treated the patients according to Kaori’s instructions.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime and the others arrived at the group gathered around Kaori. Afterwards, Randzi spoke out loud about the water being secured and how the cause had been annihilated which resulted with everyone shouting out of joy at the same time. Smiles began to return to the people who were despairing from the amount of death and how they could not secure safe water in the middle of the desert.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">The information was immediately conveyed to the other facilities.

Next, she finished her calculation, turned to look at Hajime and answered with, “Two days.” She might have judged that was the very limit regarding both her magic power and the patients’ endurance.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Hajime-kun.

She also heard Hajime would return to their original world even if it means to abandon this world. He also told her to return to Kouki and the others if she couldn’t agree to his way. Having heard all of those, Kaori’s will didn’t waver; she wanted to continue following Hajime.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Even in this current case, if Hajime decided to abandon Ancadi, and although she would try to persuade him, she would just give up if there’s no effect.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">However, it was the truth that she wanted to become the strength for the people of Ancadi, if she could. She was inadvertently looking at Hajime with a petitioning gaze at that time when Hajime was thinking about his decision. She wasn’t conceited that her desire would be the same as Hajime’s decision, but Kaori’s gaze must have influenced Hajime’s decision since he shrugged his shoulders a little with a wry smile when he received her gaze.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">That’s why, the way it seem</span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">ed that Hajime was going along with her selfish desire made Kaori hold a complex feeling.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">However, Hajime only indifferently shook his hand towards the apologizing Kaori. Having seen through Kaori’s feeling, he told her not to mind since it was something he decided on. Kaori smiled at Hajime, who was worried about her although he said so in a blunt manner, and who casually showed a father-like attitude. She looked at him with a gaze filled with trust and affection.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“I will also do my best… so please come back safely.

Even when they were in Japan, Kaori mercilessly cut down Kouki’s misunderstanding, dropping bomb onto Hajime which resulted in the classroom to suffer the storm of jealousy… those had become their daily life. And she was being even more frank since the day she confessed to him.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime somehow managed to avert his gaze, but the place he averted to was… where Yue was. He saw it; Yue was watching Hajime in silence with dead, inorganic eyes. It was really terrible. He instinctively changed his gaze to the other way, and Kaori was there smiling with affection…<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">But seeing Kaori’s atmosphere, our idol, Myuu dropped a bomb.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Kaori-oneechan, Kaori-oneechan looks just like Yue-oneechan from before.

We don’t need your permission to do such a thing.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Uh… that is so… but I don’t think it is the real reason…”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Angered by that, Kaori objected to Hajime. Hajime sighed again and said, “Yue, too, there’s no need to always bicker like that.” However,&nbsp;<i>hmph!</i>, Yue turned her face and refused to listen to him, “This is a woman’s fight… there’s no need for Hajime to interfere.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Randzi and the others could only stand in place by the suddenly generated carnage. Shia reflected, “I noticed that recently my presence had been thinned.” Tio was still panting hard, while Myuu turned into angry mode because Yue and Kaori were quarrelling again.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime gave up on controlling the situation and decided to go to «Guryuu-en Great Volcano» as fast as possible. Kaori was not the only one being busy in the medical center, since although Hajime had told Randzi beforehand, he once again told Randzi to take care of Myuu. Smiling wryly at the relationship between Hajime and his party, Randzi readily agreed to take care of Myuu.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Myuu had been persuaded beforehand, but as soon as she guessed Hajime was going to leave, Myuu looked down with a lonely expression. Hajime kneeled to match Myuu’s eye-level and patted her head.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Myuu, I am going. Be a good girl and wait for me, okay?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Uh, Myuu will be a good girl. So come back quickly, Papa.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ah, I will return as fast as possible.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Grasping the end of her clothes tightly with both hands, Myuu was enduring her tears. And the appearance of Hajime gently patting Myuu, even if they weren’t related by blood, made everyone see them as nothing but a father and his child. The cold, post-carnage atmosphere has turned warm. Hajime pushed Myuu’s back towards Kaori’s side. Yue, Shia, and Tio moved out in order.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime was about to turn on his heel, when Kaori called out to him.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ah, Hajime-kun… that’s, have a safe journey.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Ou, please take care of Myuu.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Un… also, that is… can I ask for a, kiss? Like… a kiss to pray for a safe trip.”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“… Of course you can’t. Rather, what’s with that?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“On the cheek is okay, too, you know? Still no?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Although she was fidgeting with flushed cheeks, Kaori’s tone was unexpectedly a strong one. Apparently her rivalry with Yue made her think she must not back out at such a time. Hajime recalled that he noticed Kaori was rather proactive at the time they were still in Japan, but the Kaori after confessing to him was even more proactive.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Hajime ignored the rabbit-ear who said, “Ah, then me, too!,” from behind him and decided to flatly refuse Kaori, but he was attacked by an unexpected enemy.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Myuu, too~. Myuu wants to kiss Papa, too!”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Kaori took an advantage of Myuu, who innocently reached out to Hajime. Hajime wanted to say a lot of things and evade her (Myuu isn’t that strong after all), but finally,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">“Papa, Papa hates Myuu?”<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">Saying so with teary eyes, Myuu endured herself from crying.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">In the end, Kaori, Myuu, and somehow Shia were kissed on their cheek. And this time, in a place where a lot of patients were lying down, they were watched with warm gazes although they didn’t know why. Afterwards, Hajime, as if running away, went towards «Guryuu-en Great Volcano».<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 21.466665267944336px;">By the way, although Tio also wanted a kiss, Hajime rashly insulted her because she was being too cocky which resulted in her being even more excited. Let just say it turned into something disgusting.<o:p></o:p></span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal"></div>Cristian Lunguhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09439490906932179691noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206796356670612968.post-29373277732322350412014-11-25T21:18:00.003+02:002014-11-26T02:24:51.062+02:00SUGGESTIONS<div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; SUGGESTIONS</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div>YOU CAN TELL ME IN THE COMMENTS WHAT YOU WANT</div>Cristian Lunguhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09439490906932179691noreply@blogger.com0
